In a field, I am the absence of field. In a crowd, I am the absence of crowd. In a dream, I am the absence of dream. But I don't want to live as an absence. I move to keep things whole.

With what you were talking about before. The world being broken. Maybe it isn't that we're supposed to find the pieces and put them back together. Maybe we're the pieces. Nick says. Maybe, Nick says, what we're supposed to do is come together. That's how we stop the breaking.

Hope and belief. I'd always wanted hope, but never believed that I could have such an adventure on my own. That I could own it. And love it. But it happened.

How come princesses always have some huge flaw that can cause their downfall?

This must be part of Mother Nature's master plan—making these boys so irresistibly cute, in such a naughty way, that the purity of their intentions becomes irrelevant.

But I know the difference. Everyone else is a ghost. I exist here alone, stranded by choice. Deserted.

Listen to me: I never married because I was too easily bored. It's an awful, self-defeating trait to have. It's much better to be too easily interested.

I don't know why I'm saying any of this, except that it's the truth. -Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist

Dumped doesn't even begin to describe it. If you're going to use a trash metaphor, incinerated is more like it.

The complexity embedded in the different levels of meaning that go along with the words I love you ought to be a whole mindfuck of a video game

But she's not, and I am left to wonder on my own: How does this work, the getting to know a new guy without revealing too much desperation for his undivided attention?
